Any Better Than a Colorado ?

[Frankenstrat]

Quite right, my boss had a Golf Blue Motion in the UK before he migrated a few years ago, so he's a confirmed VW lover. He occasionally borrows my Golf if his Navara is unavailable for any reason.

I wasn't present when he test drove the 'Rok, so I don't know where he went, possibly to Melville VW in WA. We have a Hi-Lux dual cab ute at work and the driver thereof would be interested in the 'Rok.

ROK has 7 cm more width to the HILUX in shoulder height - I measured it

As the owner of 5 Holden Rodeo Utes 2005 V6 Auto, Dual Cab x 2, Extra Cab x 1 and 2 Cab Chasis.

I can tell you a few things about Rodeo: 1) Expensive Parts very high rate of failure in starter motors.
2) Lucky to get 400km out of a 70ltr Tank (20ltr per 100)
3) High Service costs

Speaking to a Colarado owner last week not much has changed fuel usage wise as Isuzu love wasting petrol.

I'll keep my Rok and switch in five years to something else better, if anything is...
Most of the complaints I have seen are form people who cant afford a new 4x4
anything in the first place.

Personally Amarok is easily the best ute I've driven.

What problems are you continually having with them? I would like you to tell me what vehicle I can buy that has no problems what-so-ever....that's right one doesn't exist. Every car manufacturer has dramas and I bet the Amarok will suffer it's fair share of problems as has the BT-50/Ranger, Triton, Hilux, D-MAX/Colorado and Navara. As for the Great Wall, it actually only copied the panels with a different front end. It runs Mitsubishi and Toyota drive line bits and pieces and if you think it's better than the Colorado than good for you.

V240 has the same engine as the base 2.4 triton, the same chassis as a D-Max/Colorado, tray, doors, door handles and most interior parts are interchangable between the 3, the x240 has a Toyota chassis, please, if your going to bag a product be correct.

Yeah well I was mostly correct, also you need to mention that the reason the parts are interchangeable is because they are copies. In your above comment it would almost appear you are implying that they are genuine Mitsubishi/Isuzu parts slapped together. I apologize for digging up an old thread in advance.
